Motorcyclist injured in Baileys Harbor

For the second time in a week, a motorist suffered an accident on the curved section of State Highway 57 near County Road Q in the Town of Baileys Harbor. The crash occurred just before 12:30 a.m. Friday morning, a 22-year-old Baileys Harbor man riding his motorcycle lost control as he negotiated the curve. According to the police report, the motorcyclist entered the gravel shoulder before returning to the roadway. He later fell off near the middle of the road and slid across the pavement before ending up near the edge of the southbound lane. The man was transported to Door County Medical Center to be treated for suspected minor injuries. He was later cited for operating under the influence, with a revoked license, failing to keep the vehicle under control, non-registration of another vehicle, and operating without a valid motorcycle license. Last weekend, a different motorist damaged a Wisconsin Public Service utility pole when they allegedly lost control of their vehicle in a similar spot, albeit under slicker conditions.
